Check out http://wiki.kj4byi.org and I think I have some notes on our primary site www.florida-dstar.info as well. The wiki has a topic about two different levels of backups, including the one talked about in the ICOM gateway manual..... Need more info, please feel free to ask!

I am using a dell poweredge 800 server with centos 5.3 and G2 software. Now if I build another dell poweredge 800 just like the one I have and install centos 5.3. How can I move over all the g2 stuff, because when I first built the first one, I had all kinds of problems with getting it running, had to call icom dstar tech seveal times, but finally got it working just fine. Any ideals on this, I have tried some of the tips on google, but have not got a working backup yet. Ralph aj4g If you get a second disk of the same model you can use the program dd to copy one disk to the other, put it in a like server and you have a duplicate system.
